Naturforsch. 60a, 641 – 648 (2005); received May 3, 2005 A simple liquid solution model is proposed to describe the effect of solvent-solute interactions on the solubility of nonpolar and slightly polar substances in supercritical solvents. Treating the system as an ideal solution, the effect of pressure on the solubility is zero or nearly zero, as it is governed by the difference in molar volume of the pure supercooled liquid solute and the pure solid solute, and this may be nearly zero. Deviations from ideal behavior are given by activity coefficients of the Margules type with the interaction parameter w interpreted as interchange energy as in the lattice theory. The hypothesis is put forward that the interchange energy is of the same form as a function proposed by Liptay and others to describe the effect of the solvent on the wavelength of the absorption maximum of the solute dissolved in the solvent. The function consists of a radius of interaction a and a function g(ε) of the dielectric constant ε of the solvent, treated as a continuum. The function g depends on pressure through the pressure dependence of the dielectric constant ε(P). The attractive feature of this formalism, introduced by Baumann et al. and here justified thermodynamically, is that plots of the logarithm of solubility vs. g are linear, except for polar solutes near the solvent’s critical point. Changes in slope then admit interpretation as changes in the radius of interaction a with possible clues about the mechanism of solvation of these molecules.

The most precise values of the molar enthalpy of fusion AHf(i) of chemical substances can be generally obtained from calorimetric measurements. However, when we deal with substances having higher melting temperature and which are also unstable and very corrosive the calorimetric determination of the quantity AHf(i) can be less reliable.

  • Enthalpy of Sublimation in the Study of the Solid State of Organic Compounds
    J. Phys. Chem. B 2005, 109, 18055-18060 18055 Enthalpy of Sublimation in the Study of the Solid State of Organic Compounds. Application to Erythritol and Threitol A. J. Lopes Jesus, Luciana I. N. Tome´, M. Ermelinda Euse´bio,* and J. S. Redinha Department of Chemistry, UniVersity of Coimbra, 3004-535, Coimbra, Portugal ReceiVed: March 30, 2005; In Final Form: July 5, 2005 The enthalpies of sublimation of erythritol and L-threitol have been determined at 298.15 K by calorimetry. The values obtained for the two diastereomers differ from one another by 17 kJ mol-1. An interpretation of these results is based on the decomposition of this thermodynamic property in a term coming from the intermolecular interactions of the molecules in the crystal (∆intH°) and another one related with the conformational change of the molecules on going from the crystal lattice to the most stable forms in the gas phase (∆confH°). This last term was calculated from the values of the enthalpy of the molecules in the gas state and of the enthalpy of the isolated molecules with the crystal conformation. Both quantities were obtained by density functional theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP/6-311G++(d,p) level of theory. The results obtained in this study show that the most important contribution to the differences observed in the enthalpy of sublimation are the differences in the enthalpy of conformational change (13 kJ mol-1) rather than different intermolecular forces exhibited in the solid phase. This is explained by the lower enthalpy of threitol in the gas phase relative to erythritol, which is attributed to the higher strength of the intramolecular hydrogen bonds in the former.

Colloidal nanocrystal-based materials have been demonstrated success in a variety of applications, such as LEDs, electronics, solar cells and thermoelectrics. In each of these applications, the thermal transport property plays a big role. An undesirable temperature rise due to inefficient heat dissipation could lead to deleterious effects on devices' performance and lifetime. Hence, the first project is focused on investigating the thermal transport in colloidal nanocrystal solids. This study answers the question that how the molecular structure of nanocrystals affect the thermal transport, and provides insights for future device designs. In particular, PbS nanocrystals is used as a monitoring system, and the core diameter, ligand length and ligand binding group are systematically varied to study the corresponding effect on thermal transport. Next, a fundamental study is presented on the phase stability and solid-liquid transformation of metallic (In, Sn and Bi) colloidal nanocrystals. Although the phase change of nanoparticles has been a long-standing research topic, the melting behavior of colloidal nanocrytstals is largely unexplored. In addition, this study is of practical importance to nanocrystal-based applications that operate at elevated temperatures.

  • Measurement of High Temperature Heat Content of Silicon by Drop Calorimetry
    Journal of Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry, Vol. 69 (2002) 1059–1066 MEASUREMENT OF HIGH TEMPERATURE HEAT CONTENT OF SILICON BY DROP CALORIMETRY K. Yamaguchi1* and K. Itagaki2 1Department of Materials Science and Technology, Faculty of Engineering, Iwate University, Ueda, Morioka, 020-8551, Japan 2Institute of Multidisciplinary Research for Advanced Materials, Tohoku University, Katahira, Aoba-Ku, Sendai, 980-8577, Japan Abstract Heat content of silicon has been measured in a temperature range of 700–1820 K using a drop calo- rimeter. Boron nitride was used as a sample crucible. The enthalpy of fusion and the melting point of silicon determined from the heat content-temperature plots are 48.31±0.18 kJ mol–1 and 1687±5 K, respectively. The heat content and heat capacity equations were derived using the Shomate function for the solid region and the least square method for the liquid region, respectively, and compared with the literature values. Keywords: drop calorimeter, enthalpy of fusion, heat capacity, heat content, high temperature, melting point, silicon Introduction Single crystals of silicon are important materials used in electronic device applica- tions. The solid and liquid phases coexist at the quasi-equilibrium state in conven- tional processes to fabricate the single crystal of silicon. Therefore, knowledge of the thermochemical data such as heat capacity, melting point and enthalpy of fusion is important for the analysis of fabricating processes. Furthermore, production of a sin- gle crystal of silicon having the higher quality and a larger diameter is required for the Czochralski (Cz) technique of single crystal growth. In order to achieve this demand, mathematical simulations of the transport phenomena prevailing in the Cz single crystal growth have been carried out based on the thermochemical data.

The n-long chain alcohols such asn-octanol(C8), dodecanol(C12), tridecanol(C13), tetradecanol(C14), pentadecanol(C15), hexadecanol(C16), heptadecanol(C17), octadecanol(C18), nonadecanol(C19)and eicosanol(C20)were the systems used for testing the methods. The experimental or estimateddata was available in the literature, and comparisons enabled the determination of the relative deviations for the compounds studied. It was expected that the enthalpy of fusion could be well evaluated by using sublimation and vaporization enthalpy as well as with the use of liquid and solid enthalpies of formation for the compound. However, when the results were compared with the literature ones, it was found that there are problems with the data published (experimental or not) because of the high relative deviations presented.
